Description

Featuring elegant designs and high-quality paper, Floating Worlds Japanese Prints Coloring Book is the perfect stress-reliever for fans of classical Japanese woodblock prints.

The floating world of Geisha, Kabuki actors, cherry blossoms and the majestic Mt. Fuji--with this coloring book for adults you are there, recreating woodblock prints of people, landscapes, flora and fauna.

This fine art, adult coloring book includes 22 woodblock prints from the Ukiyo-e genre, all ready for the touch of your colored pencils or fine markers. A copy of the richly-colored original print sits opposite your coloring "canvas" to use as a reference, or not. Before beginning, enjoy a little of the story behind the image, as each print comes with a brief yet fascinating introduction to the original work. Altogether, it's the perfect way to relax and have fun with art.

When your masterpiece is complete, tear it out at the perforation to frame and display.

Critical Reviews

"...Each colorful print honors the artist with a write-up about his life and an explanation of the painting...On one side you have a copy of the original print to use as a reference and on the other side, there is print for you to color and create your own masterpiece..." -- Pausitive Living blog

"A magnificent collection of 22 authentic Japanese woodblock prints for you to color using your own colored pencils and/or fine markers...Arranged with a brief backstory of the print first, followed by a copy of the original print, beside a large 8 1/2" x 12" uncolored print for you to color as you please. The prints are on good quality paper, single-sided and perforated so you can easily tear out, share, display and even frame your works-of-art. Relaxing and inspiring!" --Handmade by Deb blog

"...Floating World Japanese Prints Coloring Book is more than just a coloring book! There are 22 images for you to color. Some are by the most famous artists Utagawa Hiroshige and Katsushika Hokusai, and others are by lesser-known by fabulous artists. For each print, you'll get a page of information about the print, which has had me looking at them in new ways and seeing things I previously didn't see. Turn the page, and you'll see a large color version of the print with the artist title, and series information as well as the date of the original print. On the right side of the page, you have your own full-page black and white outline of the same print for you to color." --CastleViewAcademy.com
